Status:

base class, extends NXobject

Description:

Base class to detail the marching cubes (MC) algorithm. ...

Base class to detail the marching cubes (MC) algorithm.

Documenting which specific version of MC was used helps with understanding how robust the results are with respect to the topology of the triangulation.
